LVR Series
Low-TCR Current Sense Chips
The resistors are constructed using out-
standing TCR level material, which makes
LVR resistors excellent for current sensing
application in battery charger circuit & DC-DC
converter. The composition of the resistive
material is adjusted to give the LVR series
resistors more resistive stability than the
competition in very small package sizes.
